If you loved Tears of the Sun, try Southpaw

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Antoine Fuqua, and they both carry the uplifting mood tag, and they sit in Action / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Tears of the Sun, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

uplifting

What Southpaw is

A Brooklyn gym, winter, punching bag thuds. A champion boxer's life unravels, a family falls apart, a corner man steps in. Fuqua puts a classic underdog story through its paces.
